Simply place the needle near the edge of the scissor blades, and as you open them, slide the needle outwards.
Repeat this movement 6-7 times, and you’ll notice how the scissors regain their cutting ability. This trick is ideal for quick and easy maintenance.
Another practical option is to use a glass bottle, such as those for medicines.
Bring the scissors close to the base of the jar’s neck and, similar to the needle method, open the scissors while sliding the edge of the blades against the glass.
With just 6 or 7 passes, the scissors will be sharp and ready to use.
